HOLIDAY WEEKEND? WRITERS NEVER STOP

A misconception regarding writers is we have loads of free time, take breaks for holidays and have an easy life. Bullocks! Half the creative process involves observing, listening, reflecting, note-taking and constructing, even before we put our thoughts on paper (and part-time jobs).

This weekend, I will continue blogging about my book and post more photos that have sparked my imagination. Let me share an excerpt from my newest book in the SHADOWWATER SERIES (title to be determined), and accompanying images which sparked my imagination, hence this scene:

She could smell the heat. The dense, dewy moisture brushed her nostrils as she inhaled. The crescent moon, close enough to catch but not bright enough to light her way.The feline ignored the shadows, as did the human walking beside her, both imperceptible, flanked by tall grasses and planted bushes, palm trees.
